to use the seat freestanding and on the chassis<br />

Your <strong>Bugaboo</strong> <strong>Frog</strong> seat is designed to carry one child who weighs less than 37 pounds. When using<br />

your <strong>Bugaboo</strong> <strong>Frog</strong> freestanding, put the backrest in the semi-reclining position. When using the seat on the<br />

chassis, the backrest can be adjusted to sitting, semi-reclining and reclining positions, and the angle between<br />

the backrest and the seat of your <strong>Bugaboo</strong> <strong>Frog</strong> seat unit will remain constant. With infants younger than six<br />

months, do not use the seat in the sitting position. Use it only in the reclining and semi-reclining position, and<br />

then for not more than two hours at a time.<br />

Seat used freestanding with backrest in semi-reclining position<br />

H<br />

to use your bugaboo frog in town, in the woods<br />

and on the beach<br />

Read the following diagrams and text in sequence to best understand the various ways of using your<br />

<strong>Bugaboo</strong> <strong>Frog</strong> in town, in the woods and on the beach.<br />

Using the <strong>Bugaboo</strong> <strong>Frog</strong> in town (four-wheel position)<br />

1 When using your <strong>Bugaboo</strong> <strong>Frog</strong> in town, place the handlebar is over the large wheels and unlock the<br />

swivel hubs. (See Diagram G2.) This gives your <strong>Bugaboo</strong> <strong>Frog</strong> maximum maneuverability and lets you<br />

negotiate pavement with ease. To move the handlebar over the large wheels, pull the two release knobs<br />

on the inside of it towards you, then pull the handlebar across. Do not exert force on the handlebar while<br />

pulling the knobs.<br />

Using the <strong>Bugaboo</strong> <strong>Frog</strong> off-road (four-wheel position)<br />

2 When using your <strong>Bugaboo</strong> <strong>Frog</strong> in the woods or on bumpy surfaces, place the handlebar over the swivel<br />

hubs. This puts the large wheels in front to let you negotiate bumps with ease. Lock the swivel hubs by<br />

fully raising the locking switch. (See Diagram G1.) To move the handlebar over the swivel hubs, pull the<br />

two release knobs on the inside of it towards you, then pull the handlebar across. (See Diagram H1.) Do<br />

not exert force on the handlebar while pulling the knobs.<br />

Using the <strong>Bugaboo</strong> <strong>Frog</strong> on the beach or other difficult terrain (two-wheel position)<br />

3 When using your <strong>Bugaboo</strong> <strong>Frog</strong> on a level beach, place the chassis in the two-wheel drive position. To do this,<br />

remove the seat from the chassis, lock the swivel hubs and put the handlebar over the swivel hubs.<br />

4 Once you have pulled the handlebar over, push the crossbar between the swivel hubs down until you hear<br />

a click.<br />

5 You can now put the seat on the chassis in the two-wheel position.<br />

6 When the buggy is in the two-wheel position, the seat can only face the direction of travel.<br />

7 Lateral stability is substantially reduced in the two-wheel position. Take care not to let your <strong>Bugaboo</strong> <strong>Frog</strong><br />

fall over when using it this way on rough terrain.<br />

The mosquito net keeps flies, mosquitoes and other insects away from your child. Attach it to the foot end of<br />

the seat/bassinet over the sun canopy.<br />

Rain Cover<br />

The rain cover protects your child from rain and wind. Attach it to the foot end of the seat/bassinet frame over<br />

the sun canopy. Remove the textile from the sun canopy to give your child an unobstructed view. The rain<br />

cover has a prefixed rib; slide the holes on either end of it across the pins sticking out on the side of the<br />

seat/bassinet frame. At the front of the rain cover is an air vent; for optimal ventilation ensure that the hook &<br />

loop fastener strips of the air vent meet well when pressed together.<br />

WARNING<br />

WARNING<br />

Under direct sunlight, temperatures under the sun canopy can<br />

become uncomfortably warm.<br />

To avoid uncomfortable heat build-up, lower the rain cover<br />

when the rain stops.<br />

Ensure optimum ventilation by firmly pressing the hook & loop<br />

fasteners of the rain cover air vent together.<br />
